Monkey Shoulder Blended Scotch Whisky

Monkey Shoulder Blended Scotch Whisky is a popular Scotch whisky brand known for its smooth and rich flavor. It is made from a blend of three different single malt whiskies from Speyside, Scotland's most famous whisky region. The whiskies are then aged in first-fill bourbon barrels, which give the whisky a unique and creamy texture.

Monkey Shoulder is characterized by its fruity and floral aroma, with hints of vanilla and honey. On the palate, it is smooth and mellow, with notes of oak, spices, and a touch of smoke. The finish is long and warming, with a lingering sweetness.

One of the things that sets Monkey Shoulder apart is its name. It is named after a condition that some distillery workers developed from constantly turning the malted barley by hand. The name pays tribute to the hard work and craftsmanship that goes into making each bottle of Monkey Shoulder.

Monkey Shoulder is a versatile whisky that works well both neat and in cocktails. It is often used as a base for classic cocktails like the Old Fashioned or the Whisky Sour. Its smooth and balanced flavor profile also makes it enjoyable on its own or with a splash of water.
